Further cementing Amelia Island's weekend on the automotive calendar is the Gooding & Company and RM auctions. Together they did $54.9 million in sales this year with relatively few lots.

Gooding's top sale went to a remarkable Bentley 4½ with original Le Mans tourer bodywork that sold for $2,750,000. They also broke previous records for the Ferrari 365 GTC, Ferrari 275 GTB Berlinetta, Ferrari 275 GTS and Fiat 8V.

RM benefited from using the Ritz Carlton's ballroom. Front and center was the Duesenberg SJ LaGrande Convertible Coupe that fetched $4,510,000 USD. They also had the privilege of setting records for the Stutz DV32 and Maserati Ghibli Coupe.

One of our favorite lots was the highly-original Ferrari 365 GTC which was delivered new in pink to Morocco. With its original suede upholstery and foreign plates, it fetched $1,072,500 and makes a great example for our model listing.

We have assembled our complete gallery of this year's Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance which is broken down by class and car. The work is quite extensive, but it shows off the exceptional work that has gone into curating each class.

At the top of our list was the GT40s we featured earlier which was rivaled by the 50th anniversary 911 display and a 911 racing class. It included the Le Mans-winning K3 from Bruce Meyer amongst many historic 935s and RSRs. The 911 road cars were equally impressive with many early 911s and and the unique 1985 Speedster Prototyp.

Amelia celebrated the 50th anniversary of Lamborghini with a dedicated class that included the Miura roadster from Switzerland, a pre-production Miura prototype and the only 3500 GTZ.

The new C7 Stingray was on hand and surrounded by many of the original 1963 Sting Rays. Numerous prototypes and racecars were displayed including the very first racecar.

We could go on and on about each of the 33 classes, but instead we encourage you to discover for yourself some of the many treasures from the show. Bill Warner and the many volunteers did an excellent job, bringing together the world's best cars to the benefit of the Hospice of Northeast Florida. Bravo.

As a prelude to our complete Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance gallery we have prepared the some highlights from the show's GT40 class.

Some of the best examples were chosen to represent the GT40 including the double Le Mans winning chassis which also won best of show. It is likey the most desirable and expensive American car.

Other examples on the showfield included the last remaining Mirage, an original Alan Mann lightweight, James Glickenhaus' MKIV and several prototype cars. These and more can be found in our gallery preview which will be updated with the entire show later this week.
